Director of Retail Development

We're looking for someone to drive showroom expansion end to end: building relationships with developers and brokers, understanding the markets and the spaces, running the lease process, directing architects and contractors, and delivering finished showrooms on budget.

This is not a one-store-at-a-time job. Rather, we will be building a pipeline of new locations such that our pace accelerates over time — a few projects in motion now, more next year. Furthermore, we’ll be refining a repeatable playbook that makes each opening faster and better than the last.

This role will report directly to the CEO.
